Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with a warm, honeyed glow and coppery highlights.
Nose
Opulent vanilla and creamy toffee rise from the glass, unfolding into ripe pear and baked apple with citrus zest and a kiss of orchard spice. Bourbon cask influence brings warm oak, caramel, and a sunlit sweetness, lifted by a vibrant, cask-strength backbone.
Palate
Powerful and richly textured, this single-cask Benriach pours with cask-strength warmth. Vanilla and creamy oak coat the palate, supported by caramel, toffee and orchard fruit. Middle notes of orange zest, cinnamon and white pepper rise, while coconut and almond deepen the sweetness. The finish is long and warming, lingering vanilla and oak spice.
Finish
Vanilla-forward and honeyed, the finish unfolds into a long, warm procession of toffee, orange zest and gentle spice, supported by oak and a whisper of bourbon sweetness. It lingers with silky persistence, a light peppery bite and refined, mouth-coating warmth that invites another sip.
